PICK ROBERT EEESOI! TO HEAD HARRISON TOWNSHIP FARMERS (Special to the Palladium) JACKSONBURG. Ind., Dec. 7 -A lirge proportion of Harrison townchip's population waa entertained at ". community basket supper following the meeting of the township farmers' association in the Odd Fellows' hall Tuesday night. AM families brought nie3. cakes, salads, fried chicken and other dishes, in such profusion that the crowd was able to consume only half of the display on the tables. Election of officers for the coming year, a speech by County President. Hunt and a report of his artivitips hv
County Agent Dolan, was the program' r f the meeting. Tel 'in? of the accomplishments of the farm bureau, Mr. Hunt mentioned i the seven laws passed by the agricullural b!oc in congress, and the work! of the committees of the state organ-; ization. relating to legislation, live j stork and co-operative purchase of j supplies. He urged members to enlarge the township unit, both in order1 to assist in achieving still better re-! suits, and to enable local members to' take better advantage of the benefits j
i me organization. In support of Mr. Hunt, Robert P.eeson, township chairman, pointed out that all conditions are favorable tor farm organizations now nnrl nwil
farmers to enroll while the federation j has such strong support. Membership i solicitors were appointed as follows: I.. I. Daugherty. Frank Eliason, Verne! Dellays, Walter Kitterman , Fred Scott, Spencer Gettis and Theodore' Keever. A number of those present i signed up immediately for the coming j ear. The membership campaign will! be put on in one day by live teams li-aded by those named, and the solic-j itors will form a clean up squad to'

gather in the stragglers over the whole township the next day. Officers for the coming year were elected as follows: Robert Beeson, president, re-elected; Verne DeHays, vice-president; Isaac Brooks, secretary, succeeding John Moster; Frank Jacobs, treasurer, re-elected; directors, L. D. Iiaugherty, Frank Eliason. Frank Secrest, Arthur Burg and Merritt Gilmore. J. L. Dolan gave a short talk explaining the work of his office illustrated with extracts from his annual report showing the number of farms visited, number of people given agricultural advice, either personally or over the telephone and the results of such project as the smut treatment of wheat and poultry culling. Some
surprise was shown at the report that the number of miles he had traveled in Wayne county in the course of his work has been equal to the earth's diameter.
MURRAY Powerful, thrilling and, in the same breath, tender, exquisite, can truthfully be said of "The Money-Changers." which begins its four day engagement at the Murray theater tomorow. It is Benjamin B. Hampton's newest, and we think his greatest production. He
and Cpton Sinclair wrote the story ' around a theme in Mr. Sinclair's novel j of the same name. The picture comands Interest at i the very start, quickly plunging into the story, which introduces characters i In New- York's high society and then ' shifts to Chinatown. There we see! the link between the under and the upper worlds. A financier or hign j social standing worships the god of! money. He cares not that the goldthat overflows his coffers is at the!
dreadful cost of the souls of people1 to whom he illicity sells drugs in the! mysterious, seeret mazes of China-i town. j To expose the drug gang is the' ambition of an alert young news-j paper reporter, whose articles have! caused a falling off in sales and thown fear into the ring's leaders. The :
action leads fast and furiously up to a climax that for thrills and suspense sets your blood pounding and your
nerves throbbing. It stirs your emotions to fever heat. "The Money-Changers" also is not lackinsr in romance, there beinir three
t and. uniquely, the one of the ring leader's playthings is the more exquisite and tender of the three.
The cast leaves nothing to be desired, splendid performances being rendered by Robert McKim, Roy Stewart, Claire Adams, Audrey Chapman, George Webb, Edward Peil and many others. The direction reflects great credit on Jack Oonwav. MURRETTE Two thousand "ham" actors in one motion picture production! One "ham" is usually enough to ab

agreed that the picture would have lost a large percentage of its realism. Charles Chaplin has another knockout in "The Idle Class," his latest First National comedy, which ends its stay at the Murrette theatre tonight. Charlie, sensing the present-day trend, has boiled down ten reels of fun Into two reels and the result Is a kaleidoscope of laughs. Charlie in a dual
role is at his best and that needs no
elaboration. i Mack Swain, the only American! rival of Stamboulski, premier of Bui- j garia, again proves that he is a superb , foil to Chaplin. In "The Idle Class" j Mack towers above Charlie in Scot-j
tish kilts and. incidentally, settles a long-disputed question which bothered
I the women of the world during the jwar: "Do Scotties wear 'undies' or 'don't they?" He does it while lean- '. ing over to connect with Charlie's ! spear. But that's just an incident among a thousand other side-splitting : situations. ! Chaplin is supported by Edna Purviance, Henry Bergman, John Rand. !

amounts to quite a sum, as a rule it is so small in each Individual case that the manufacturer can conveniently pay it without passing it along. The average man also discovers that his "better half" is relieved of the taxes she has been paying on toilet soaps, powders, perfumery, cos
metics and other toilet articles, and that the tax on patent medicines, dental supplies, etc., have been removed. Gone also is the tax Young America has been paying upon ice cream and soft drinks. The public gains more by the repeal of these taxes than the government loses. It was admitted that, although these taxes were collected of the public, a very small per cent of them were ever turned over to the government because of the inability to establish a system for checking up and enforcing their payment. The fact that the new law repeals the tax on insurance premiums is com
mented upon favorably. Rail Tax Removed The general public is expressing particular approval of the repeal of
the transportation taxe. for the American is a confirmed traveler. The repeal of this lax Represents the largest item of reduetron. The newlaw wipes out all taxes which have been paid by passengers in the purchase of tickets, and by'.shippers who have paid taxes based cn'.freight rates
a.ua parcel post rates. The old passenger tax amounted o eight per cent on e cry ticket bought over 41 cents in value. The freight tax amounted to three pv cent on the face value of the freight, bills. The parcel post tax was one cent on each 25 cents of postage. All tftld. these taxes took out of the pocket of the American public $300,000,000 a vcar. All this will stop January 1. None of the transportation taxs collected under the old law went into the treasuries of the railrorad com
panies, at Is was all collected by them on behalf of the government. o the railroad revenue.5 are not affected by
the repeal cl .these taxes.

the new state law against headlight glare, read this Importance of focus
To Lave lawful headlights, you must have proper lenses. But
you must also have proper focus.
Focus is de termined by the lamp reflector, not by the lens. Place your car 50 feet from a wall, open lamp doors, and move each bulb forw ard or backward, until the circle of light it throws is
as small as it will get. When this focus is obtained, see that the two circles of light are as far apart as your headlamps are, and as high from the ground. You then have "No. 1" focus, w hich lighting engineers agree is best for all lamps, cars, and road conditions.
